Ramblers Extinguish Flames in OT for Fifth Straight Win

The Loyola men’s basketball team took down the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) in an 81-75 overtime thriller.

The Ramblers (10-2) squared off against UIC (5-6) in an inner-city rivalry matchup that was Loyola’s third game in a row against an old Horizon League opponent.

The biggest surprise of the day came before the tip-off, when the team announced junior forward Donte Ingram would start after missing three games with a sprained MCL. Ingram, who hurt his knee against Norfolk State University on Nov. 30, was initially expected to miss four to six weeks, but returned after only 16 days.
